Re: 7-12-07 - Redlegs-Metropolitans at Queens

I have no problem with it. Its likely not a 1 run game anymore as soon as the pen gets involved, the bench is weaker than circus lemonade and there were 2 outs.

Yep.

Yep.

and

Yep.

He's been great. I like the "loser" and "last place" comment when referring to Gonzo or Phillips not going out to the pitchers mound so they know what pitch is coming, too. Think like a team, act like a team.

Yes, the reds look like a last place team tonight. WV - I don't think any of the other teams see anything in Stanton. I have no idea on this earth why our front office decided to sign him. For one thing, he looks like a walking heart attack. our current manager is in better shape than him. Stanton is about to blow the game open for the Mets now.

I'm going to make the kind of statement that I usually abhor due to the sheer inability to back it up: this team has zero mental toughness. It's immature, mentally, which is not to say that the players don't try or that they don't know "how to play the game"; just that they're lacking a certain concentration and coherence and I have no idea how they can fix that.
